Ukraine responds to Russia trying to destroy one of its most important cultural and spiritual landmarks by attacking a vital, strategic oil facility in one of the most defended areas of Russia.
The war in a nutshell--and another example of why Ukraine must win.
This time, the Moscow region felt the reach of Ukraine’s long-range capabilities. An oil refinery was hit at a distance of 500 kilometers. I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Missile Forces for their effective work.
Russia must be forced to end its war against our people. And Ukraine’s long-range weapons are one of the important components of such pressure.
This is a just response to Russian strikes – and to the dragging out of a war that must be ended.
Glory to Ukraine!
